My Quiet Week..

It is mid-summer, and blasted hot and humid.  My house this week is so quiet that it is deafening. I had gotten used to the boys being home and listening to their playing and arguing..They are in the midst of Vacation Bible School at my sisters church, it is a really big deal too, this place has gone all out to make sure each child has a wonderful experience.
Some 1600 kids ages 4-14 are attending, this years theme is Creation and  the church brought in dinosaurs, and built a solar system. They also constructed several museums for the kids to go through.  My sister is also teaching kindergartners and is having a wonderful time doing so.

So, with Senior out working, and the kids gone every day until 1pm, I am left with me, myself, the cat and the dog and a tank full of fish..This morning after dropping off the boys I returned home to do some laundry, then hung it out to dry, changed all of our bed sheets, showered and scrubbed mine and Seniors shower. Then i got the call from Senior who was in need of JUGMS ATV Tow Service, one of our mowers was stuck at the edge of a rentention pond...I told him It would there would be an additional fee for "Hazzardous Terrain Extraction"..ha ha 

I then watered all my little baby cucumber plants, over 22 of the little ones are growing nicely (see them below)... On Sunday Senior built me another box, and  we put bush green beans in it. Little ND went out to play yesterday and came in screaming we had baby green beans...he put some grass blades in it trying to trick us..  : )


The Gift Card Debacle has been resolved. Seniors dad sent them some birthday money--so it worked out in the end, but I did make them wait before going shopping again which about killed both of the boys..I just hope that NW learned his lesson about sharing.

okay tick tock goes the clock, looks to be getting cloudy out. I need to go remove the laundry before we get a rain shower..not like that hasnt happend before!  Soon I will need to go pick my little loves , I think I shall stop for a Chocolate Chip Frappacino from McDonalds on the way. I then will hear all about their day at VBS. Yesterday they were all a buzz with excitement and I know today will be no different.
 Senior has class tonight, and I promised the boys a bag of hot krystal burgers and might surprise them with a cold DQ Blizzard...ohhh yeaaaaaaa
